I wonder how they will report on the "issues" they faced http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2779236/Jeremy-Clarkson-Top-Gear-team-forced-leave-Argentina-early-police-escort-inciting-Falklands-outrage-H982FKL-number-plate.html Report
October 5, 201411 yr comment_655244 Gee, there's a big surprise. After pissing people off for years and getting away with it because nobody takes them seriously anymore, they finally stepped on one toe too many. That's what happens when your primary selling shtick is a mix of crude bumbling slapstick and caricature nationalist xenophobia. I'm gonna say they had it coming. Report

October 11, 201411 yr comment_656022 Some things are obviously pranks, but I can buy their side of the story. I'm not sure what the specifics of plate registration are in Argentina, and the explanation was not terribly illustrative, but suffice it to say that this appears to be their reputation catching up to them, and perhaps not deliberate provocation. In any case, it is hilarious. I love their style, and I'm glad that they're willing to ruffle feathers in pursuit of it. Most people never have the opportunity to cause international incidents with their caricatures, and I'm glad that Top Gear takes their responsibility seriously. A little mockery on the international stage helps defray larger tensions, and no one can be held accountable for what Top Gear does but the show itself. Report

November 21, 201411 yr comment_661352 Reasonably good special. Predictable, not better than the last one, but still quite enjoyable. The Alfa and the Vette both look brilliant. Report
December 28, 201411 yr comment_666048 While it was nothing too special, I'm just glad it was sort of honest and even slightly serious, not excessively staged and silly. Looking forward to part 2! Report
December 29, 201411 yr comment_666085 I got it on kickass.so, it's been my go-to torrent website! And I watch it live via stream2watch.com or something like that. Slightly difficult to dig through the many ads and fake clicks, but works in the end! Report

January 21, 201511 yr comment_669150 I'm kinda lucky being in the UK - you just turn on the television and pow - there it is Couple of years ago I was stuck in a traffic queue in front of James May in his RR. Both he and Clarkson live within 30 miles of me, which actually isn't really saying much because the UK is really very very tiny. Report
